My Dearest Lori, how I miss your beautiful face and smile. I wake up everyday thinking of you and what you went through. I am so blessed to have
you as my sister. You have helped me in so many ways growing up. You helped me get my first job at 16 and remembering those summer days at Green Lake. I know the Lord is with you! I love you and will miss you always.

I grew up with Lori, She was one of the first kids I met on the block when we moved here in 1968, so long ago went to grade school & high school together. I'm so sorry for your loss God Bless.

I worked for Lori at Evans Bank and coincidentally, my husband went to school with her in Hamburg. She was a joy to know, we will miss her. God bless you and your family, Kurt.

I think this was probably Lori's motto!
